Table 31. Configuration Parameter List - Connection Network Configuration for
ATM (continued)
Parameter Information
Parameter
QoS
Valid Values
CLASS_0, CLASS_1, CLASS_2, CLASS_3, CLASS_4, where
CLASS_0
The unspecified class. The network does not specify any QoS.
CLASS_1
Performance is comparable to current digital private line performance.
CLASS_2
Intended for packetized video and audio in teleconferencing and multimedia
applications.
CLASS_3
Intended for interoperation of connection-oriented protocols, such as Frame Relay.
CLASS_4
Intended for interoperation of connectionless protocols, such as IP.
Default Value
CLASS_3
Description
This parameter indicates which class of service is provided to an ATM virtual
connection.
Table 32. Configuration Parameter List - TG Characteristics (Connection Network)
Parameter Information
Parameter
Cost per connect time
Valid Values
0to255
Default Value
0
Description
This parameter expresses the relative cost of maintaining a connection over the
associated TG. The units are user-defined and are typically based on the applicable
tariffs of the transmission facility being used. The assigned values should reflect the
actual expense of maintaining a connection over the TG relative to all other TGs in the
network. A value of zero means that connections over the TG may be made at no
additional cost (as in the case of many non-switched facilities). Higher values represent
higher costs.
